Default Update on DCT Steering wheel and some CF bits

Quick update on the new steering wheel install.

This was the DCT wheel after install with the OEM trim pieces.



Loved the wheel but the silver OEM inserts weren't working with the wheel for me. So ordered new CF inserts to match the OEM CF in the cabin.





These match the OEM CF on my shifter, e-brake and center dash (cup holders etc). But there was still something missing, the silver finish on the door handles was now clashing with the new CF… soooooooooo





Now we got everything working together LOL!!



For me, this is the extent to which I would personally would go with CF accents in the car. As for the wheel, if you are in the market for a new wheel, and you like thick, fat wheels then the DCT wheel is a huge upgrade over stock. I absolutely love it.
